Lord Heseltine’s message to the British people
“…you were conned, you were sold a pup…”
Now they’ve woken up the opinion polls are showing they’ve changed their minds...

"the former chair of the Liberal Democrat group on Dacorum council who also resigned the whip, said: “I have been shocked to see the level of sexism within the Liberal Democrats, where I had rather naively assumed such behaviour would not be tolerated." https://t.co/VTfvc8H4dB
Sexual harassment is used as a political tool when women have no fair recourse. Complaints processes more interested in gathering kompromat than safeguarding women in politics are part of the problem #Dacorumwomen

.@LibDems announced they're removing whip from a peer over historic sexual harassment allegations. Today members received an email asking them to come forward with complaints re sexual assault saying "Our party handles complaints better today than it did in the past" Really? 1/4
“The quotas now apply to sex at birth...[LVW said] "the fact the party has changed these quotas - despite some strong opposition - cements the position that the Lib Dems accept April’s supreme court ruling.”" https://t.co/4B2IqoWQgh
The @LibDems showing they accept the SC ruling by changing their quotas. "The leadership said the rules had to change to comply with April’s Supreme Court ruling, which said that trans women were not legally women under the Equality Act." https://t.co/lVqB1WDfXD
📣🗳️ Triennial Federal Elections open tomorrow in @LibDems. LVW are standing a strong slate of candidates who have real-world experience on a platform of good governance and liberals values - inc. freedom of expression and belief. See 👇 - pls vote! https://t.co/GxVVwQ8D2U
Fact check @wendychambLD remarks to @CamillaTominey at #LDConf. 1st Wendy says the debate on women’s quotas wasn’t allowed bc the Party is waiting for EHRC guidance. Listen to Lucas shutdown women - EHRC isn't mentioned. 2nd says all Political Parties waiting on EHRC. Not right
“Ed Davey knows exactly who the men and who the women are”, @hollowood_zoe@LibVoice4Women tells @DawnNeesom@gbnews. Anger at Liberal Democrat conference in Bournemouth as vote to stop trans women taking women’s roles is stopped. Labour have changed their policy since the Supreme Court ruling…the Lib Dem’s have not….
Dr Zoe H @hollowood_zoe speaks the language of liberal women across the world. Orwellian distortions to detract from issues affecting women’s day-to-day lives are the reason we have Trump in the US. Wake up LD MPs before it’s too late - your silence leaches votes to Reform.

The Tory Party has been a runaway train for some years. A few of us have a sense of relief to have jumped free before it hits the buffers. But if it’s going to be replaced by the Farage Party, the country will be diminished. My @NewStatesman piece. https://t.co/jdYQwAK0CA
A dark day for freedom of the press, for everyone who cares about it and for every journalist & news organisation that believes in public interest reporting.
A statement:
I would be really grateful if @guardian@ObserverUK & @TEDTalks made a comment on this ruling. Any comment.
It has huge ramifications for UK journalism. And some basic solidarity from the organisations who published the work would go a long way.
Thank you.
NEW: Greens now the biggest party on Lewes Council.
ALL 19 Tory Councillors have lost their seats
GREEN 17
LD 15
LAB 9
Hard to overstate what a shellacking across the south east this now is for the Conservatives.
